Is there some kind of power saving mode with your hardware? Putting supposedly inactive hardware to sleep. On various bits of digital audio hardware/software, I commonly encounter another annoyance: Something will start to play, and there'll be a little hiccup moments after the beginning. It's akin to playing a vinyl record which has track damage. In both our cases, it could also be a caching/buffering issue. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1062.9.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 6 15:49:49 UTC 2019 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
